I’m not sure you could get a better match.

If you did the same comparison between two vintage 12000 series would they sound the same? With the parts of the day, did one Marshall sound the same as another? With the tolerances of the day I some how doubt it.

What I will say is if one of the amp's that we have been listening to were to be put in an original box, played back to you, me, or any body else, we would all swear it was an original 12000 series Marshall.

The only thing missing is about 1000 hours use. And you’re in luck as I’m selling that particular component right now. Just send me one of your amps and in 40 years I’ll get it right back to you. :whistle:

I truly think you’ve nailed it.

I know this is an old thread. What kind of caps are those in the mixer and the tone stack?

Look like they could be some old RMC's. Re-doing my 100 watt right now and been doing some research on this stuff. 8)
